Interior

[gas]

I am confused, I was watching a video review on the internet and it should the lexus rx300's interior and it had a touchscreen, it didnt mention if it was just for the sattelite navigation option, can anyone shed some light on this? does the rx300 come with a touchscreen as standard?

Also I cant find what each rx comes with, could somebody help? can u tell me what comes with the base modela and the se, much help appreciated

Hi Gas,

The touchscreen you are referring to is the SAT NAV system which is an on-board computer that let's you do all sort of things. In new models, the SAT NAV also has a built-in Bluetooth car kit. It is not a standard item on all models but strongly recommended, it's worth every penny.

There are three base models:

RX300

RX300 SE

RX300 SEL

Only the RX300 SEL comes standard with the SAT NAV. You need to get it as an optional extra on the other 2 models.

You should also consider the SE + NAV - these are very popular. You will also find that it's a couple grand cheaper. The main difference in the SE/SE-L is the suspension. SE-L has special suspension which is quite hitec but many people prefer the standard suspension. (Personally I could not tell the difference in my short test drive in London :P)

All RXs have the screen, it's used for audio and climate control and the fuel computer. You just don't get the sat nav functions.
